Racists will hate it.
System is designed in a way that there's only white superheros in comics and books so only white people are starred. Good that hollywood is breaking the system and giving poc a chance to earn few bucks too
shareMost comic book readers are white and most comic book artists are white, so nothing weird or wrong with the majority of comic book heroes being white. Nothing weird either with having a comic book hero with a different skin colour, but there's no good reason to turn a white one black.
shareThat’s true, but they didn’t in this movie. All the spider people are from the comics, including Miles. So there was no race-swapping
shareWhile there wasn't literal race swapping, I do feel the Miles character was a race trade-in. There's only one Spiderman and that's the white guy Peter Parker.
shareI don’t really see it as a trade in, since original Spider-Man was in it, and as a pretty important character, Peter B Parker. He’s your regular earth 616 white guy peter Parker. And there’s quite a few versions of Spider-Man in the comics. Just, Peter B Parker is the most known
shareI was talking about the conception of the Miles character, who started out in the comic as the actual replacement of the dead (Ultimate) Peter Parker. So unnecessary. And now he even shares Peter Parker's duties in the main universe. They're really pushing him. I actually hate all these different versions of superheroes. Peter Parker should at least have been the main character in this movie.
shareI’m confused on which part of that comment is talking about the comics and which part is referring to the movie.
I disagree since peter Parker is always the main character in all of them. We already have a current movie series ongoing with Peter Parker as Spider-Man. They did something different. He was in it, and important to it, but he wasn’t front and center like he always is. People can have their Peter Parker by watching live action MCU Spider-Man. An animated peter Parker movie series coming out alongside a live action one just makes no sense.
I meant that in the original comic Miles was a trade-in because he started out as a replacement of a dead Peter Parker. It was a world in which the original Spiderman was supposed to be gone for good. Miles was the main character in that series, not Peter Parker.
Having a live action movie reboot every few years doesn't make much sense to me either.
